Are you a 1 on the annogram?
Are you good at accounting too?
Do you use proper grammar when casually texting?

I love proper grammar and spelling as well, and NO I am terrible at math! I do excel in English and I am very creative and artistic

Ooh, too many to count!
Probably the worst is misplaced apostrophes.
I cringe all the way through Purim opening mishloach manos from the Rosenberg's, Stein's and Weiss'!
Also, when my children come home with glaring grammar mistakes from their teachers. It's awful!

Don't know what the enneagram is. (that's clearly misspelled, as spell check found the mistake, I only knew the proper spelling from the above post correcting it!)
I'm good at math. Nothing major.
About texting, yes, usually. Depending on how annoying my half-broken flip phone is acting at that moment! I'll abbreviate, like OMG, LOL, prob, avail, or nite, but will go back to correct their/they're/there or other mistakes like that.

 Not certified, but definitely nerd-leaning!

I'm not terrible at math, but I am also creative and a generally good writer (not quite artistic, just creative).

Both!
I enjoy writing properly, I enjoy reading proper English, I actually bought a kids' illustrated grammar book once, I find it fascinating! And bad grammar, it's like the worst itch possible!

I'm not OP but I absolutely HATE when "loose" is used when "lose" should be, I.e. "I need to loose weight", or when "alot" is used as one word.

I don't particularly love grammar, but I have a definite knack for it.
No pet peeves; if anything, OTHERS' peeves peeve me. [shrugs]

I see I missed a word in my question.  I tried to write it well.
I am the opposite, I can be nearly blind to my grammar mistakes

Where is the punctuation in your thread title?
Sorry, I was just browsing here, but that was total clickbait for me!

But she said she loves grammar!
Maybe you should tackle the punctuation AMA thread...
